>You enter the bakery first, followed by the others... Mr. Wilhelm seems to be really surprised to see this many people enter his store all at once, but then he smiles when he sees just who it is that's come to visit.

>"Oh hey, if it isn't mister bodyguard!" he says, waving at you. "Marie's not with you today?"
>"It was the plan, but she got caught up with some stuff back home," you say, shaking your head.
>"Ah, that's a shame," he sighs. "So what can I do for you and your friends, buddy? The usual order?


"Not today," you say, shaking your head.
"Oh?" Mr. Wilhelm tilts his head. "Is the little lady on a diet?"
"Heh. She probably ought to," Nicolette laughs, "considering how she's always eating cookies a-OW!"

Ouch. Melanie just elbowed Nicolette for that little crack.

"Er..." you clear your throat, "Marie was supposed to be here with us but then some urgent business came up," you say.
"Oh, I see," Mr. Wilhelm nods. "That's too bad."
"Yeah, so I was wondering if we could order a cake for her to try and cheer her up."
"A -very- big cake," Luciana chimes in.
"Oh?" he laughs. "And how big are we talking here?"

"Hmm..." you scratch your head. "Maybe as big as a fancy wedding cake?" you say, turning to Luciana.
"That might do it," Luciana nods. "We need enough for both her and her father, right?"
"Yeah, and he eats a ton..."

Judging by how things like this usually go, the two of them won't be the only ones eating this potential monster cake.

"Yeah, just make it huge," you say, shrugging. "In whatever type that she usually gets when she's here."
"Will do," Mr. Wilhelm replies. "I'll tell Liese to get right on it... but you do know that this'll take a few hours to finish, right?"
"Yeah, that's fine," you nod. "We just stopped here to take care of the order, we'll be back later."

"Ah, I see," Mr. Wilhelm nods. "Planning ahead."
"Yes, Reinhold's rather on top of things today!" Luciana giggles.
"You're making it sound like I'm usually -not- on top of things," you sigh.
"Haha, that's just how it is when you're dealing with the ladies, my friend!" Mr. Wilhelm says with a toothy smile. "Don't tell me you're not used to that by now? I mean, these are the same girls you came in with last month..."

And then he looks at Luciana.

"...actually, I don't believe we've met before, miss..."
"Violette," Luciana says with a wide smile. "I'm Marie's friend."
"I see," he replies. "And how about the happy-looking lady over there?"

Oh, he's talking about Citrine.

"I'm Citrine Lanzmann," Citrine says, placing her hand on Marius's shoulder. "And this is my husband Marius."
"Lanzmann..." Mr. Wilhelm scratches his head. "Where've I heard that name before... OH!" he snaps his fingers. "The artist, right?"
"The one and the same," Marius replies with an embarrassed smile.

"Wow, you're quite the local celebrity," Mr. Wilhelm laughs. "How'd you manage to become friends with these two, Reinhold? Through Marie?"
"Nope!" Citrine says proudly. "Reinhold's my little brother!"
"I see!" he laughs. "Well welcome to our humble bakery... if you like our goods, I hope you'll decide to visit again! I bet Liese would love to get some pointers in her cake decorating technique from a famous artist..."
"Ooh, that sounds like it could be fun!" Citrine giggles.
"Heh, maybe," Marius shrugs. "At the very least, it'd be a nice change of pace from my usual work."
"That's the spirit!"

Does Nicolette's bedroom have a lock on the door?
If not, we should get her own. One of those magic ones that doesn't let unwelcome guests enter, so that peeping Greg doesn't sneak up on her during Meido make-out moments.

She has one at home too, but the way the enchantment works is tiered. Anyone above can open the door of anyone below, regardless of permission.

And since Gregory's the one who owns the house, he can go wherever he wants.

I'd kind of like to get her something spear related actually, but I don't know dick about spear accessories. Maybe a new rack or something.
Failing that, we might think about something that makes her job easier, seeing as she always complains about what a pain in the ass it is. Yes, I know that's just how she is and she'll complain that it's a pain in the ass regardless but the sentiment's there.

"About the cake," you say, "would I be able to request something special on it?"
"What, like writing?" Mr. Wilhelm asks. "Sure, I mean you're the one paying for it in the end."
"Not so much that," you say with a nervous smile, "I was thinking about maybe some kind of llama-themed thing? Like having a llama-shaped cake, or..."

Suddenly, you find yourself cut off by the sound of Luciana's hysterical laughter.

"Oh... oh my..." Luciana clutches her stomach. "You want to give her... a LLAMA cake!?"
"What," you shrug. "She likes llamas, and I thought it might be cute."
"Yes, but an entire cake in the shape of one is just absurd!" she laughs. "I mean, how would Mr. Wilhelm even go about baking such a thing?"
"I dunno, but I'm not the baker here..."

Wow, she's not even trying to hide the fact that she thinks your idea is absurd. And judging from their giggling, Nicolette and Melanie think so as well.

"Well -I- think it's a lovely idea," Citrine says, pouting.
"Heh, thanks," you reply, smiling at her. "At least -someone- here doesn't think I'm dumb."

Hey, Arch, I don't mean to pry or anything, but...

"I wouldn't call it a dumb idea," Mr. Wilhelm says, "but it would take a LOT of work in order to do."
"Money isn't an object," you reply. "At all."
"Oh, really?" he raises and eyebrow. "Er... but I'm assuming that you want the cake done before you guys head back home for the day, right? The earliest we'd be able to have a llama-shaped cake done is tomorrow afternoon. ...one that I'd be satisfied with, at least."
"...oh," you sigh.

So much for that idea.

"But I could probably manage some kind of small decorations around the cake, if you'd be okay with that," Mr. Wilhelm says, shrugging. "Liese likes cute stuff like that, so I'm sure she'd be thrilled to work on it."

You notice that Nicolette seems to be getting kind of antsy... it's probably best to hurry this up. But there is one very important thing to ask before you go.

"How's the baby doing?" you ask.
"Lorentz the second is doing just fine!" Mr. Wilhelm says with a proud smile. "Liese says that he's starting to smile too, though I'm not sure how much I believe that."
"Oh, you have a baby?" Citrine asks.
"Yup!" he nods. "Apparently, Reinhold here told my wife a bad joke that caused her to go into labor," he says, winking at you.

You will never live that down.

"Wow, I guess I'll need to be careful around him..." Citrine laughs.

"Maybe our kids'll end up as friends," Mr. Wilhelm says.
"That would be nice," Marius laughs.
"You hoping that yours will take up the family trade?"
"That would definitely be nice," he replies.
"Chances are that he'll take after his uncle, though," Citrine says, patting you on the back. "Since I have it on good authority that he's great with little kids!"
"I dunno about that," you say, laughing nervously.

She must have noticed how Elena seems to adore you.

"Well I guess I ought to get started on your fancy cake order," Mr. Wilhelm says, clapping his hands. "Come back in about... five hours or so, that should be enough time for it to be done."
"Great, thanks!" you reply with a wide smile.

Marianne's going to be so surprised...

With your dealings done with for now, you and the others wave goodbye to Mr. Wilhelm as you leave the bakery. The next stop: LUNCH!

Because seriously, your stomach is growling something fierce. Being around all that fresh bread only served to make your appetite even stronger than it already was.

Though it sucks that you're not able to get it shaped like a llama like you'd hoped, it's still going to be a huge cake and Marianne's sure to be thrilled so you're (mostly) fine with it.

And now Marius is leading you and the others to that restaurant that he was talking about. The more that you imagine the prospect of eating the food, he more your stomach growls... you really wish it would stop already.

"Oh no!" Luciana sighs.
"Hm?" Nicolette turns to her. "What's wrong?"
"I forgot to introduce Takamaru to that nice baker fellow..." she turns to him. "Sorry, I didn't mean to be rude."
"No, it's alright," Takamaru shakes his head. "I am not one for such... lively events, I find it more comfortable to stand in the background."
"Still, it was really rude of me and I'm sorry for forgetting you like that."

I'm glad we're all in agreement that archelon is a loli.
I thought I was the only one and that was kind of weirding me out.

You should add a panel where they stop to eat turkey legs.

You can be a Quest-Masteru, and be a waifu, daughteru or imouto.

Quest-Masteru should just be a given and people should pick one of the other choices.

>>34594053
No. Quest-Masteru is something that goes beyond merely being a QM. Being a fully dedicated Quest-Masteru leaves no room for being someone's imouto or waifu.

Just like IRL.

I agree. Arch is clearly ara-ara or nee-san to the loli playerbase.

After walking for quite a ways, you find yourself stopping in front of a medium-sized building with some kind of strange writing on the signboard. Through the large picture windows, you can see people eating... this must be the place that Marius was talking about.

"Here we are," Marius says, extending a hand towards the building. "'Eastern Restaurant Kurobayashi.' It's got a pretty wide menu so you should be good even if you don't like fish."
"Fish?" Melanie turns to Marius.
"Yeah, a lot of the dishes involve fish," he replies. "But there's other meats if you don't like that. Shellfish, chicken, squid..."

Melanie seems visibly grossed out upon mention of that last one.

>[2/?]

>>34594132

Melanie prefers mollusks.

>>34594132
Hah! What a baby!
She probably doesn't even eat them alive!

"Hey, it's not that bad if you give it a chance," Nicolette says, resting a hand on her shoulder. "How about we get some of that takoyaki stuff, that's pretty good."
"Tako...?" Melanie mumbles.
"It is made with octopus," Takamaru replies. "They're quite popular during the summer back in my village."
"No," she shakes her head. "I refuse to eat something like that."
"Well how about I order some and you can take a little bite..."

After letting out an exasperated sigh, Melanie leans into Nicolette's ear.

"And I'm not about to -kiss- someone with octopus breath, either," she whispers... but it's still loud enough for you to hear.
"ahahahahahaha never mind," Nicolette says with extremely artificial laughter as she takes Melanie's hand. "now let's quit loitering out here and go inside!"

You honestly feel kind of bad for Nicolette. She and Melanie have only been going out for maybe a week now and she's already completely under her thumb.

>[3/?]

>>34594233
Good girl, don't want any of that subhuman food

>>34594233

Given the length Nicolette go to keep everything embarrassing in her life under wraps it's no surprise anyone living close to her get tons of blackmail material.

>>34594233

You honestly feel kind of bad for Nicolette. She and Melanie have only been going out for maybe a week now and she's already completely under her thumb.

The first thing you notice as you enter the restaurant is that it's really dim. Not so much that it's difficult to see, it's just enough for you to notice. Must be for the ambience or something... a lot of the places you've been since leaving Cateno have done things like that.

The light level isn't the only thing that's noticeable about this place, the overall decorations of the restaurant are very foreign-looking. In particular, there's a lot of wood-looking material along the walls. Yeah, this place feels extremely foreign.

But in a good way.

>You honestly feel kind of bad for Nicolette. She and Melanie have only been going out for maybe a week now and she's already completely under her thumb.
I wonder if we can do anything to give Nico some leeway, otherwise she's going to be whipped as hell for a very long time.

>>34594374

"Good morning!" a cheerful-looking waitress says as she approaches you and the others. She's wearing something similar to what you remember the Queen of Kinsen wearing back when you met her at the party in Marconetti, and her accent is very noticeable as well. "Are all of you in a single party?"
"Yes," Marius nods. "There's, uh... seven of us."
"Alright, we'll get you seated right away."

The waitress scurries off into the restaurant, and shortly afterwards you notice a couple of guys come from the back room and push a couple of tables together. Once they're finished, the waitress comes back and guides you to your seats.

The seating arrangement is what you'd expect, the three couples among you sit next to each other, with Takamaru taking the seat opposite Luciana. And you find yourself sitting between Luciana and Citrine.

"Everyone should feel free to get as much as you want, I've got the bill for this," you announce as the waitress hands you your menus.
"I hope you know what you're in for," Nicolette says, grinning at you while Melanie giggles.

Knowing her, she'll end up ordering everything on the menu... everything except takoyaki, anyways.

"Marius, what do you think I should get?" Citrine asks.
"I'm getting the soba," Marius replies. "But it's cold and I know you don't like that... maybe you should try out the ramen?"
"Okay!" she chirps.
"Those are both types of noodles," Luciana says, sensing that you have no idea what they're talking about.

"I'm gettin' this sushi, and that sushi... ten of each to start with, you think that's enough?" Nicolette turns to Melanie.
"I guess," Melanie shrugs.
"Ooh, they have eel!" she says with an excited glint in her eyes. "Ten of those too, and five for you..."
"Eh?" Melanie flinches. "I'm not eating eel!"
"Eels are just long fish," Nicolette sighs. "And it's really good. Just trust me on this one."

Wow, she's actually putting her foot down?

"What are you getting, Reinhold?" Luciana asks.
"I dunno what most of the stuff on this menu even is, so I'm not sure," you reply. "What about you?"
"I'm getting some of the nigiri type sushi, along with chicken katsu... both of those are really good, if you were wondering."

Then she turns to Takamaru.

"What about you?" Luciana asks.
"Ebi tempura, a few pieces of chicken teriyaki," Takamaru says as he looks the menu over. He might not be able to read, but there's pictures of everything on the menu along with the list. "Maybe some gyouza, I haven't had that since I left home... unagi..."

Wow, he's really into this. Not that you can blame him, this is the food of his homeland.

If we're going to ask anyone, it should be Takamaru. Even if he's not a certified expert or anything, it's food from his homeland. He's bound to have some good suggestions.

We don't need to make him order the whole meal for us or anything, but it's at least a good idea to ask him for one thing he thinks is a must-try.

Thirded.

"Hmm..." you look over the menu. "I guess I'll just get the same thing as Nicolette. But not as many of them as she's getting, of course."

You're still going to be walking around for a good while after this, and you know better than to completely gorge yourself on strange food at a time like this.

"Hey Takamaru," you call out, leaning back so you can get a better view. "Do you think that's good? Getting a bunch of these different types of sushi?" you say, pointing to the ones that Nicolette listed.
"Hm," Takamaru nods. "I'd suggest not to get that one, it's a bit of an acquired taste," Takamaru says, pointing to a picture that says something about "wasabi." "But the tuna nigiri and unagi sushi are good, yes. I'd also suggest that you get a main dish just in case you dislike the sushi like the- er, like Violette picked."
"Katsu... alright," you nod.

And just as you decide on what you're getting, the waitress returns to the table and takes your order. As expected, Nicolette gets the most food, but Takamaru's in second place. Not too surprising though, he definitely looks excited to be able to eat familiar foods again.


>talk about a thing as you wait for your food?

>>34595007
Can't really think of anything important.

>>34595007

I suppose we could talk about kids but it's kind of in bad taste in front of Nico and Meido.

>>34595007
Maybe ask Takamaru about any decorations that catches our eye, or talk with him about Eastern swordsmanship and swords.

>>34595007
ask him about his country
and maybe how he could tell us about some fun places to visit for our honeymoon

>>34595085
I'm interested in learning more about his home country so I'm all for this.

>>34595085
>implying Celestino hasn't already planned the honeymoon program of every single one of his children

Gotta be careful.

I've got class in the morning, so I'm afraid that this is it for this thread.
It was fun though, and I look forward to finishing off this day.

The next thread will be Wednesday night, and I'll be running False Dendrite. I'll be skipping Thursday, and Friday will be dedicated to Princess Guard since that'll be this quest's birthday.
